Those very same “myths” are used regularly by the Left against causes they don’t favor.

The functional equivalent of that — a cap-and-trade system — worked spectacularly well when Congress required marketable permits for discharging sulfur dioxide (SO2) in 1995. Acid rain caused by SO2 emissions quickly plummeted, at about one-sixth the cost predicted. Once people have to pay for their emissions, they find ingenious ways of reducing them

THIS, confirms what I've always feared: Non-Technical people will assume we can control CO2 the same way we did SO2. They don't have a clue. It's no-where near in the same category.
